Thank you, B. Wright.  I agree with what you have said.  You explained it very well.   In my case, the church would say they agree, also, then make it clear that while they might submit to women in some instances, in all cases of pastoral and teaching ‘leadership’ as well as headship in the home, women are to submit to them/their husbands.  Sort of a case of ‘partial mutual submission’ if you will, based in part on their application of the verse telling us to ‘obey those who are in authority over us’.
